The next Dover Cassily Community Garden’s “Growing Children” children’s garden program “The Three Sisters: Plant Buddies” will be on Saturday, May 21, 2011, 10am. Kids will care for existing plantings, talk about groups of plants that help each other grow better, and plant “warm” season crop seeds and transplants.

This is the second in the summer long Growing Children Activity Series focusing on growing cycles, affinity for planting, caring for, harvesting and eating locally grown organic produce, community building, social interaction, exploration of nature, getting dirty and just plain having fun!

Children of all ages and families are welcome to attend free of charge. Much more information (including directions) is available at [1] dovergarden.org or email Traci, Youth Outreach Coordinator, at [2] the.mogget@yahoo.com.  All programs will begin at 10am at the DCCG shed and run from about an hour to an hour and a half.
